Gnani Purush Quotes

“One has to understand the line of demarcation between the Self and the Non-Self from Gnani Purush (the enlightened one). His explanation holds truth in all three times i.e. past, present and future. The light remains the same, even after hundreds of thousands of years.”

“Is there a Parmatma (Absolute Supreme Soul)? There definitely is, and the Parmatma is within you. Why are you searching for it on the outside? But only if someone opens the ‘door’ for us, can we have the vision of the Parmatma, right? This door has been closed shut in such a way that no one can ever open it by himself. Only the Gnani Purush (Enlightened One), who has become free from all bondage, can help others attain the same.”

“Just as one has encountered a nimit (someone instrumental in a process) to bind him, if he encounters a nimit to set him free, he will set him free without fail. He who is free (from worldly bondage) can free others. One such free man exists once in awhile. Moksha (ultimate liberation) is not rare but a bestower of liberation is very rare indeed.”

“There are two ways by which one will realize the life’s goal. If we have not met a Gnani Purush, then we should live life in such a way, that we hurt no one. Our highest goal should be to not hurt any living being in the slightest. The other way is if you encounter the Gnani Purush, then you should remain in the Gnani’s satsang. In doing so, all your work will be accomplished. All the 'puzzles' will be solved.”

“Those who are in vyavahar (worldly interactions), and who are indeed conducting themselves in the vyavahar; are known as worldly people [sansaari]. And ‘Siddha’ (absolutely enlightened Ones without a body) are not in the worldly conduct whatsoever. Therefore, they are known as the ‘non-worldly’ people [asansaari]! Then there are those who are in the worldly life and yet whose conduct is not in the worldly life at all; such ‘Gnani Purush (the enlightened ones)’ are called, ‘non-worldly’ (asansaari).”

“When someone picks the Gnani Purush’s [the enlightened one’s] ‘pocket’, how does the Gnani Purush’’ look at it? “Very well! This amount is now credited to my account”! Money spent for the home is money down the drain. How can anyone ‘see’ this [fact] with the narrow inner intent of ‘mine and yours’? With an all encompassing [broader] intent, one will see ‘as it is’, that is called ‘Gnan’ [Knowledge].”

“We’ (the Gnani Purush, the enlightened one) are by nature, non-interfering. If ‘we’, ourselves are non-interfering, then how can interfering people around ‘us’ can touch ‘us’? All interferences go away in ‘our’ [the Gnani’s] presence. What problems can the one that dwells in the Self [the Soul], have? The worldly life does not hinder the one who dwells in the Self.”

“One's liberation begins once he does the darshan of kashaya-free (absence of inner anger, pride, deceit and greed) Gnani purush [the enlightened one]. Who is considered kashaya-free? The one whose state is that where there was no kashaya, there is no kashaya, and there never will be any. The one who is never in the state of the non-Self. Doing darshan of such a One brings ultimate well being.”

“As long as the awareness of ‘doer-ship’ is there, till then, one keeps on ‘charging’ (karma). In the Akram-path, ‘we’ (the Gnani Purush) destroy your doer-ship. The awareness that ‘I am the doer’ goes away and we give the understanding of ‘who the doer is’. Therefore, ‘charging’ (of karma) stops! What is left now? Only the ‘discharge’ is left.”

“Artadhyan (mournful contemplation that hurts the self) and raudradhyan (wrathful contemplation that hurts the self and others) occur as long as one has not met a Gnani Purush (the Enlightened One). To look for ways to become free from both of these has been called in this time cycle as dharmadhyan (auspicious contemplation that gives happiness to one’s own self & others). Otherwise, there is no dharmadhyan in this current time cycle. Therefore, whatever prevents artadhyan and raudradhyan is called dharmadhyan.”
